Noel Murray Los Angeles Times “Me to Play” doesn’t make some grand pronouncement about living with illness or theater as therapy. It’s a small slice of life about a couple of guys trying to exemplify that classic Beckett quote: “I can’t go on. I’ll go on.” Sep 23, 2022 Full Review Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com Bernfield seems content to make the film about Parkinson's Disease rather than about artists with Parkinson's Disease. Rated: 2.5/4.0 Oct 4, 2022 Full Review Orla Smith The Film Stage I left the film having learned more about Parkinson's than I did about Moran and Jones-and for a supposed tribute to their careers, that's a real shame. Rated: C+ Mar 17, 2021 Full Review Carey-Ann Pawsey Orca Sound What makes this a heartwarming watch rather than an only sad or depressing one is the focus on the obvious passion that Dan and Chris have for acting. Feb 26, 2021 Full Review Nathaniel Muir AIPT An unflinching documentary that sees two actors with Parkinson's prepare for what may be their final role. Inspirational look at the passion actors have.

larry g As someone living with Parkinson's, Dan and Chris show how this disease, the world's fastest growing neurological disorder, is a gift that keeps on taking. They are real, raw, vulnerable and through theatre they find friendship, support and roles of a lifetime. Thank you for sharing your stories.
